Finally, PSR-11 - the Container standard - got approved by the PHP FIG. To celebrate this fact I just merged a PR to make Disco PSR-11 compatible. The latest 0.8.0 release is compatible with the 0.7.0 relase. The only difference being that 0.7.0 relies on the container-interop standard and the 0.8.0 release relies on the PSR-11 standard.
Last week we open-sourced our DI container called Disco (Dependency Injection Container). The general feedback on Twitter was really good, especially since we decided to go down the "Annotation" route which a lot of people do not really like (me included). Relying on a single class for the configuration seems a bit limited but traits will come in pretty handy. Let me show you what I mean.
For years I speak at conferences about Dependency Injection. 5 years ago at pfCongres 2010, I started my speaking career with talking about Dependency Injection in the real world. Today, 5 years later am I am finally able to push our own implementation to Github. This is a completely different version compared to what I talked about 5 years ago but still it might be useful for some of you.
The Container-Interop project tries to "identify and standardize features in container objects (service locators, dependency injection containers, etc.) to achieve interoperability". This hopefully will lead to a new PSR some day. Being a fan of Prophiler which is a PHP Profiler & Developer Toolbar, I thought it would be cool to display all the calls to the get() and has() methods exposed by the Container Interop project, see the ContainerInterface.
